Picture: 1970s Mercedes and terraced houses Mount Pleasant Square Dublin » Filename: IeDMtPlSqMerc7606.jpg

A classic Mercedes car from the early 1970s is parked in front of terraced houses on the south side of Mount Pleasant Square, Ranelagh, Dublin

See all Mount Pleasant Square photos.

For me, the common appeal of cars and architecture is design. In architecture, the designs of previous centuries continue not only to be practical and valid, but also highly sought after. In car design, classic usually refers to something more recent. Both the houses and the cars conjure up the past. Interestingly the colour of the car matches the brickwork of the houses.

Can anyone tell me the exact model of this car?
